Column: Why I'm not laughing at the new 'Borat' movie

“Borat” star Sacha Baron Cohen said on “Good Morning America” that he was concerned for actress Maria Bakalova during her scene with Rudy Giuliani.

I am not a huge fan of prank comedy and I like my satire scripted, with all the participants in on the bitter joke. I did not love the first “Borat” movie — the nude wrestling scene is something that, 11 years later, I still cannot unsee. But I certainly admired Baron Cohen’s leveraging the outrageous to reveal scurrying, scuttling bits of destructive truth that provided the film’s real shock value.

Lol. Mary doesn’t know what was scripted or not, couldn’t laugh because McDonald Trump and Rudy Gabagool are more criminal than satirical and ... that’s Borat’s fault, somehow.

Oh learn to enjoy stuff. It was funny.

Why? What are you? Stupid? -Tom

Who cares about the Borat movie? Cover the real news dammit.

Because you’re a miserable person who can’t let others enjoy things?

👀🧐this is WELL WRITTEN👊🏾🎯

LA times hates pretty much everything.

Me neither. It was just sad. Dumb Americans and the guy who is the clown president’s main legal counsel and advisor is a disgusting pervert. The whole thing was depressing. I didn’t even smirk once.

Okay.

I tried to watch it but couldn’t. I exited after 15 minutes. Just couldn’t do it.

Because we live in a world that is pretty close to satire, but it’s reality... it’s not Borat’s movie, it’s the state of the world today that’s shit
